New Music – Singles Edition!
Man, these last few weeks have been the gift that keeps on giving in terms of new music! Here were some pleasant surprises that just dropped!
Read moreConcert Review: Joywave
The fact that we are a third of the way done with March and this is my first concert of 2024 is a travesty. I will be actively trying to right this wrong for the rest of the year, but I so glad I finally got some live music in!
Read moreMGMT – Loss of Life, Album Review
I had no clue I was going to get so many new albums this early in the year! In fact, MGMT stayed pretty darn quiet about. It’s also crazy when I think about how long it’s been since Little Dark Age was released. But now, we have been given Loss of Life on their new label, Mom + Pop!

One could also see the desire to make new music now that they are just a three-piece. I don’t believe there was any bad blood with Ray Libby’s departure, but I’m sure there was a desire to see what they could create in this new form.
Read moreConcert Review: Don Broco
Although they didn’t end up taking the top spot this year, Don Broco did come in second place with three live shows (almost four, no thanks to a wedding I totally forgot about). Though I think I might have earned groupie status with them, as I saw them everywhere BUT my hometown. This final show was no exception.
